“Quilt Designs Inspired by Architecture” was presented January 8 by Beth @blue_dragonfly5 to the members in attendance at the CFMQG. Everyone is encouraged to participate in the first Challenge of 2022.
Look around, what do you see? Lines, shapes, colors, designs and all of it has the potential to be a quilt.
Places to look for inspiration include buildings, bridges, structures, walls, cityscapes, doors, windows, stairs, roads, streets, etc.
